Question

add hp deskjet wirelessly to my airport time capsule

I'm going nuts...

I had to change my Airport Time Capsule to a brand new one.

I cannot get my HP 3520 DeskJet to conenct to the network.

The on-printer screen does not have the features to configure directly by entering the SSID / password, and the Time Capsule does not support the WPS...

I had connected it with my previous Time Capsule... but can't recall how.

I've become blinded with all the search in the HP support site and otehr sources.

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

TC does have WPS.. it is in the top menu not as a physical button on the device.

Make sure you highlight the TC in airport utility otherwise WPS is greyed out.

Simple... Powerful. -- Thank you so much.

Most search results insisted that Apple does not support WPS and this is why there is no WPS button, bla, bla, bla.

I was really going nuts.

Thanks again, greatly appreciated.

Want you guys to know I was going nuts too for the same reason. Finally I found this answer and finally understood what you were saying, and NOW my printer is connected via TC to MAC, PC, and iPhone. Thanks!
